Ryan Giggs' pregnant girlfriend Zara Charles dons leopard top & flares (2024)

Ryan Giggs' girlfriend Zara Charles looked cheerful on Sunday as she picked up a pizza from an Italian restaurant in Hale, Cheshire.

The lingerie model, 36, cut a stylish figure in a pair of black flared trousers and a bold leopard print shirt.

Zara added a pair of white trainers and toted a quilted black handbag, while her long hair was styled in perfect bouncy waves.

The expectant mother beamed as she carried her takeaway, bundling up undera cropped leather jacket.

She seemed to have a craving for Italian, as she was spotted grabbing another pizza just days earlier, on Thursday.

She put on another effortlessly trendy display in leggings and a denim jacket, embroidered with pearls.

Zara and retired footballer Ryan, 50, who have been dating since 2021, are said to be expecting their first child together later this year.

The Manchester United star already has daughter, Libby, 19, and son, Zach, 17, from his 10 year marriage to Stacey Cooke, while Zara has a daughter from a previous marriage.

Insiders claim Stacey - who divorced Ryan back in 2017 - has given the couple her blessing, as well as their children.

A source told The Sun: 'Ryan was nervous about what his kids would think but they've got to know Zara over the last few years and really like her.

'They're happy because they know he's happy...But they've joked that he might struggle with the early mornings and lack of sleep.

'Ryan and Zara are thrilled at the prospect of becoming parents again, they have a very solid, loving relationship and are building a long-term future together.'

Another source told the publication: 'Stacey approves of Zara. Her and Ryan have been through a lot but they have moved on and she's only interested in him being happy, because that makes him a good dad to their kids. There is no animosity.'

Stacey and Ryandivorced in 2017 after it was revealed he had been having an eight-year affair with his brother's wife, Natasha.

Members of his family cut ties with him when the news broke, his dad saying he was 'ashamed' of his son while his brother, Rhodri, made headlines appearing on a Paddy Power advert mocking the former Manchester United man.

The marriage survived the affair - as well as Ryan cheating with Big Brother star Imogen Thomas - but they separated in 2016.

According to Leiper Gupta Family Lawyers, the divorce could have cost Ryan £20million, but the pair's lawyers said they remained 'firm friends'.

Ryan and Zara's exciting news comes after the former footballer returned to work as Director of Football at Salford City, the club he co-owns, after being cleared of assaulting former girlfriend Kate Greville in 2023.

He was facing charges of assault occasioning actual bodily harm over an alleged headbutt on Katie plus further counts of coercive or controlling behaviour against her and common assault against her sister Emma.

But, in a 10-minute court hearing, the prosecution offered no evidence and Judge Hilary Manley said: 'I formally enter not guilty verdicts in respect of each of the three counts.'

Chris Daw KC, defending Ryan, said his client is 'deeply relieved the prosecution has finally come to an end after almost three years in which he's been fighting throughout to clear his name'.

He added: 'He has always been innocent of these charges - there's been very, very many lies told about him in court.'

It was then revealed how the case began to fall apart when Katie said she did not want to testify due to the effects of the process on her 'mental and physical well-being.'

However, lawyers for Ryan said he 'did not buy' her reasoning, insisting the prosecution was put off by new information uncovered by the defence.

This included a cosmetic procedure to have lip fillers on or around the day of the alleged headbutt and several days before she was pictured with apparently swollen and bruised lips as a result of the alleged attack.
